A trainer on Friday is looking to have a winner at Wetherby over the jumps, sending just one runner to the Yorkshire based track on the day, which sees the handler make a 454 mile round trip.

When we see trainers coming such a long way to just run the one horse we like to highlight it, as we believe they would not be coming all that way if it did not have a real chance.

Trainer Milton Harris loves bringing his horses this far currently running at a strike rate of 21% during his career having had 18 winners from 84 runners.

This five year old has been in fine form of late winning at Lingfield last month on heavy ground and then backing that up last time out at Fontwell when up in trip and narrowly beaten.

The winner has since won again and that gives him a big form chance off the same mark.
